    I'm Zyggy, downloaded the free version. Picked things up pretty quickly, right now I'm trying to make myself a nice ship, though I am having a minor problem.
    I've been interested in this game for a while, but didn't try it until now.
    Started out making a harvester ship, really effective one at that. Mined a whole asteroid already
    Fought a pirate, made a nice little well armored thing. I've got cockpits, plexdoors, and SD Shield Dispersers with no idea how to use them.
    Planning on playing this game a lot, it's been fun so far. Could use help on what to do with the three things above.

    plexdoors: R-click them to make them disappear/reappear (kinda like doors)
    cockpits: place them on your ship and when flying press left and right to switch viewpoint to cockpit.
    shield dispersers: use up power to generate a shield (when hit your shield gets damage. Once the shield is down your ship will be damaged by hits) Shields recharge rate and max shield hitpoints depends on number of shield disperser blocks
    Have fun with this game!

    The R button interacts with several block types, try it out

    Well, I set down the cockpit and some shields. Now my lazers don\'t really fire, but they do. Projectile isn\'t there, though it counts as firing.
    Thanks, everything else worked though!

    that\'s a visual bug. Happens to me very often. (That game is still in alpha. Beware of teh bugz)

    It\'s a very good alpha!
    Ship is going great, totally need to screenshot it at some point.
    Only downsides are slow turn and lack of real shielding.
